Canadian Blood Services will be holding its annual Bleed and Feed drive at several Langley locations as well.

The goal, in partnership with food banks in B.C., is to fulfill 14,000 holiday miracles in B.C., while also feeding the hungry.

Each donor is asked to bring a non-perishable food item.

“Unfortunately, the need for blood never takes a holiday and neither does hunger,” said Ed Yee, director of donor and clinic services for B.C.
